We’ve waited to provide our analysis of why John McCain, America’s hero’s hero, maverick, fighting, Republican candidate for POTUS, was unsuccessful.
After listening to people who think they are a lot smarter than we are tell the nation that Governor Sarah the Terrah Palin is to blame for the loss, we have our explanation for why on January 20, 2009 anytime after high noon on that Tuesday whenever the band plays “Hail To The Chief” it will be for America’s first black president and not its oldest curmudgeon.

Today we honor the service and sacrifice made by the troops in our United States Armed Forces. The soldiers of our country have performed their duties well. We must respect what the men and women of our military units do, even though we may disagree with the mission. It is a job many of us are unwilling to do.
“A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards. More than that no man is entitled to, and less than that no man shall have.â€
This quote from Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of The United States, who served from 1901 to 1909, a soldier himself, reminds us to provide for our returning veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
If you know of any veterans in your community, vets from the current wars or other wars do your part to help them and their families. There is a web site established by Iraq and Afghanistan veterans to help other veterans. The site uses 21st Century technology to form a private, safe caring community online for soldiers returning from the war. Watch the video for more information.

10 November 2008. Congratulations and Happy Birthday to all the members of the United States Marine Corps. No need to send best wishes to past and present members of the Corps because we believe the saying “once a Marine, always a Marine.”
We love and respect Marines. We’re very glad and extremely happy to say of all the branches of the service and we love them all, we admit we love the USMC the best. Maybe it’s because it’s the smallest of the military organizations. Maybe it’s the way those men and women look in their dress blues. And have you ever seen them in the formal white uniforms?? Oooolala they are ever so sharp!
Happy birthday to all the corps members everywhere on the planet. Sempre Fidelis!

The following quote is taken from the election night address beamed around the world.
“So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism; of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves, but each other …
In this country, we rise and fall as one nation; as one people.”
— President-elect Barack Obama, Grant Park-Chicago, Illinois November 4, 2008

Madelyn Lee (nee Payne) Dunham, the 86 year-old maternal grandmother of Senator Barack Obama, Democratic presidential candidate, passed away quietly in her sleep at her home in Hawaii on Sunday, November 2, 2008. Senator Obama’s sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng was at her bedside at the time of death. In late October the candidate had suspended his campaign to spend some time with her because of her declining health and after she’d had a hip injury. She suffered severe osteoporosis as well as cancer.
The senator acknowledged her death publicly on Monday night at a rally in North Carolina saying “It’s hard to talk about”. Mr. Obama credits his maternal grandparents with being extremely influential in his development. (more…)
